Hertfordshire Lanes?????

It looks like the bolt in question is #10 in the diagram. It appears that there is not a nut behind it. Yesterday I was able to tighten it in, but the non-threaded part still stuck out by about 1 or 2 cm, so not fully in.

I'll try and borrow some sockets to see if I can get it down more

Thanks,

Wiring Victory! After spending an hour with a multimeter, some electrical tape, a warm jumper and a head torch i have (touch wood) solved my wiring woes. Take that archaic, poorly designed wiring loom!

haha not quite, it should be tomorrow though, i have a bunch of parts arriving and can hopefully get atleast most of them fitted. it is going to be a day full of learning when i get to do the drag link, trackrod end, front pads and swivel pins. that will be a fun day for sure. i have been doing some reading and am going to take a look at removing shims from the swivel pins, it seems logical to do them all at once.

Electrics sorted, wiper mechanism rebuilt. Just the mechanical bits now, need to find the time is all. I'm hoping the swivel can be adjusted with the shims rather than new socket/ball. Apparently my tow bar electrics are a fail too I think I'm just going to cut the socket off and tape the wires up haha. I also need to remove my tow ball, as towing point without electrics is a fail.
 
Thought the MOT only checked the modern 13 pin electrics, its just a visual check for damage on the old 7 pin sockets, certainly never heard of it being a fail to have a towball with no electrics !

Yup a quick trawl shows that 7 pin electics is a visual check to say that the cable and sockets are secure, there is no functional check at all. e.g. if the socket is hanging by the cable then yes its a fail. however there is NO fail for having a towbar with NO elecrics.
